Youth coaches are some of the most influential role models in kids' lives - and we take that to heart!

Southside Lacrosse League is a US Lacrosse organization. In our continued commitment and efforts to grow the game of lacrosse throughout Coastal Virginia, Southside Lacrosse helps facilitate opportunities to develop experienced and knowledgeable coaches through online offerings, clinics, and comprehensive certification.

The league supports the US Lacrosse Coaching Education Program, which ensures that our coaches are provided the tools they need to learn how to be a successful coach.

We are proud to support the Positive Coaching Alliance, which increases coaches' abilities relate to their players beyond the field, helping to teach them important life lessons through the sport of lacrosse.
